Lessons From a ’90s CD Collection - I have fond memories of some of the periods the author describes, mix tapes, then CDs, but I also went through a mini-disk phase as my music tastes broadenned from alt rock into electronic. When I spend a few minutes thinking about it, I'm astonished at how different everything was back then. There was no interactive world wide web, there was albums. In fact when you think about the bigger picture, bands and albums and independent record stores, and going to bars and gigs, and talking to other music lovers, quite literally music was the internet. www.insidehook.com #

🎙All-in Podcast Ep#137: Inflation cools, market rips, ripple/msft beat regulators, NATO summit, cocktails of youth - Another great episode, interesting macro analysis, especially as it contrasts significantly with Jeff Snider's, some crypto talk and I also found the Ukraine war coverage great, especially the wider discussion about NATO, since I want to get a better handle on what type of things these large institutions actually do. Mindboggling that they operate in some ways like a giant SaaS platform, e.g. NATO requires military "interop" with members, also that more members means more defense contracts for US military contractors. Anyway, happy Jason is back though I thought the gang held it together pretty well last week too. podcasts.google.com #
